PETERBOROUGH, ON (July 1, 2018)- As an early-summer heatwave rolled through Central Ontario, the Saturday night racing stars at Peterborough Speedway pushed the temperature to the limit with a full night of action featuring the Battlefield Equipment Rental Bone Stock, Jiffy Lube Mini Stock, Trent Lakes Complete Plumbing Renegade Truck, Super Stock and Late Model divisions; along the with the Cottage Country Dash for Cash events, presented by Lucas Oil Products.

Feature race action rolled to the Great Canadian RV green flag with a Battlefield Equipment Rental Bone Stock 20 lapper that had Jake Kelly and Rob Crick on the front row. Two-time defending track champion Jeremy Kelly was strong early, moving into second spot and then the lead with only a handful of laps complete. The lead pack caught the tail-end of the field near the halfway mark, with Ryan Oosterholt taking over the top spot as the scoreboard clicked-off the 13th circuit. The driver of the #57 machine picked-up another checkered flag, with Jeremy Kelly, Chris Tubman, Jake Kelly and Shawn Solomon following the leader to the line.

Bone Stock qualifiers went to Oosterholt, Solomon, Tubman, Corey Strawn and Sam Arnett with a pair.

2009 track champion Amanda Balson and former Oxford 250 winner Derek Lynch brought the Late Model pack from the staging area for their 30 lap feature. Balson had a strong piece early, with Chris Mitchell hot on her tail. The pair had started to put some of the backmarkers a lap down with 19 circuits complete, when the yellow flew for an incident on the front stretch a lap later. Lynch would wrestle the lead away from Balson following another caution on lap 23 and survived a green, white checkered finish for his first main event win of the year. James Horner grabbed the runner-up spot, with Dan McHattie, Mark Gordon and Steve Powell completing the top five.

Heat race wins went to Lynch, Mitchell, McHattie and Mike Wallace.

Terri-Anne Whittern and Ryan Oosterholt were the front row starters for the 15 lap Trent Lakes Complete Plumbing Renegade Truck feature. Oosterholt took the lead on the drop of the green flag and never looked back. Not even a yellow flag on lap 12 would slow his charge. Bill O’Hara, Jeff Dolley, Whittern and Carrson Hennessy rounded-out the top five.

20 laps of Super Stock feature action had some girl power on the front row, as recent high school graduate Marlie Owen and Jessica Pasinetti led the way. Owen took the early lead, with Kyle Gordon on her back bumper as the pair encountered came up on the back of the pack with six laps in the books. A yellow flag for a front stretch incident with nine complete and another for a second turn issue three laps later slowed the pace, but the young, second-generation racer from Port Hope, Ontario never wavered.

Oosterholt, Missons, Ember Junkin, Kevin Strutt and last week’s winner, Nolan Gould were the first five across the line.

Oosterholt claimed a pair of Mini Stock heats, with Gould and Ember Junkin also finding their way to victory lane.
